4.  We raise up the ministry of the Gospel – especially: … September’s “Mission of the Month” – Brady Johnson’s Eagle Scout project, building a front deck ramp at the home of Larry & Velma Bass – donations ($1700 to date) will help with the cost of supplies (now set at $2500);  … our congregational ministries, that the Lord would use them (and us) to bring people to know His saving grace.
